    Yeah man. I was appalled when I read about the shit Coca-Cola has pulled. Like, all you had to do was make some soda pop, but instead you decided to become Evil Empire Corp. It really goes to show what kind of person runs the company. Anyways, we boycotted Coke after learning about their abhorrent practices.

      It’s not just Coke, Capital is appeased regardless of the whims of individuals as long as Capitalism, and by extension Imperialism, is the dominant contradiction in the world. Marx’s analysis remains relevant. I made a “Read Theory, Darn it!” introductory reading list if you want to check it out.

      Soda companies, oil companies, and even banana companies. Colonization’s been humanity’s name of the game for at least a few millennia. We just now do it using faceless mega corporations instead of the names of kings or emperors.
